Administrative Segregation: Is It Torture??? I have been in segregation since April 29, 2016, at this time I have been in my dismal crypt for 6 months. I am just beginning an indefinite term. My earliest possible release is September 9, 2017, which'll be 17 months before I even qualify for release into a 'transitional housing unit'. I could be in the hole nearing 2 years or an indeterminate term if the Deputy Director of Missouri's prison system grants me the 'privile...

[NO TITLE] 2-14-18 As much as I hate this shxx, I've never had time to complain. My mindset always been keep it pushing because I don't feel like these people owe me nothing. I never wanted to succumb to its suffocating grasp because the moment I feel wronged I have no immediate outlet for anger without putting myself in a worse position. There's so much that doesn't go as it's supposed to and so much corruption you really have nobody to complain to. No authority figu...

[No Title] 05/27/2015 At the time my friend and brotha ask me to write something about my experiences I gladly jumped at the chance. After going through my thoughts I began to hesitate. I asked myself had I turned into a bitter old man. I know I sometimes sound this way to myself. At the time of this writing I am 53 years of age, and I have been locked up 33 years this August 16, 2015. My sentence is Capital murder and I received Life with No Parole for 50 years. I had no prior record. For th...

[ DEATH AT THE HANDS OF THE SYSTEM J FEB.27—28 @ 2:30am Bless the soul of Brother Charles Hart, I seen him lose his just a couple feet away from me and my bunk assignment 4B- 13698 Airport Rd., Bowling Green, Mo. 63334. Only ten minute from the infirmary he just left. Heart attack, stroke what- in my mind I believe the whole situation was contrived. Seeing such thing there are No words to explain the emotion?‘ or hurt that goes with such experience. Instantly I felt sad, helpless, once again ...

Deliberate Ignorance Cognizance is the prerequisite to obtaining, actuating, and sustaining all rudimentary facets that are pertinent to knowledge. But knowing is only half the battle. To “know” but neglect to “do” is an intentionally driven response and a term I like to refer to as “Deliberate Ignorance”. Anyone who understands, acknowledges, and develops the mental wherewithal to foresee the subsequent effects thereof is imparted with the added responsibility to conscientiously respond. To ...

Finding Freedom Inside of Prison When man has been consciously enslaved by the omnipresent manacles of stagnation, where does he turn in order to ingest the necessary resolve needed to break free from this self—induced sense of servitude? For much of my disparaged life I was, from a comprehensive standpoint, blind and reticent to the fact that I was helping to brand upon virtually every youthful black urbanite the systematic stigma contrived to culturally, morally, and spiritually extinguish....

Health Care or Medical Neglect: In Here It Is All The Same I would like for you to sit and visualize for a second if possible - You have left the clinic and you have a feeling that you may have been misdiagnosed buy this 'clinician' posing as a MD. The problem persists, continues to exacerbate becoming unbearable mentally as well as physically. You go back to the 'clinician' who seems appalled that you have the audacity and gall to challenge them to run a new series of tes...

Hidden To Oppression (H2O)
When I look into the world I see endless opposition but even greater opportunity. Opposition is for everyone while opportunity is for those who take them. For individuals who take opportunities and seek knowledge for the betterment of their positional roles in this world have a greater chance at overcoming the inherent opposition. Living in tall grass aint so bad after all. Once you reach the prison system it obscures the outward goals of Freedom, Success educatio...

Jameel Sykes Missouri Incarcerated... Incarceration doesn't begin in prison, but with the so called justice system. My introduction to the system begin when I was sixteen. I was arrested, interrogated and placed in a cell along side seasoned convicts. I was also offered the luxury of a public defender who was probably so overwhelmed with cases that he had no time to properly prepare to represent me. I say this because I never knew my public defender's name until a week before my sen...

1 of 2 My Time in Prison My expectations entering prison were largely formed by T.V., movies, and the off-hand remarks of an ex-con. Because I was 39 I believed I knew much about the world, and thus, life behind bars. My impressions weren't all wrong; some were spot on. Like how inmates are little different from correctional officers (C.O.) and staff. Inmates committed crime and are punished. C.O.s commit crimes, too, but escape punishment. That's the distinction between us. While a...

(1) Being born on the cuff of desegregation and later growing up I found that theres a gap in the social fabric that has created a social foundation that has marginal separation in the races once again, establishing the arena of classicism. Classicism: Adherence to traditional standards (as of simplicity, restraint, and proportion) that are universally and enduringly valid. As one who is personally warehoused in the Missouri Department of Correction, andwho is also labeled black, my eyes have...
